  1. If you choose the current sailing in the app you should be able to see the entire schedule of everything just as if you were onboard.
  2. I'm thinking those are the guys that play nightly at the Mason Jar bar that I mentioned. So if you want to see more of them...
  3. You should have been able to book your shows by now (and thus see the schedule).
  4. Internet is especially good in cabins on Wonder b/c every cabin has it's own WAP (in the closet or somewhere). On other ships, that's where it often has issues b/c the nearest signal my be broadcasting from who knows where and has to pass through your door/walls.
  5. No. Yes. Someone trying to upgrade from an interior to an ov balcony will have to bid quite a bit more than say someone trying to move up from a neighborhood balcony.
  6. With your expert stalking and pouncing (still jealous of your Wonder price) you didn't need it.
  7. It's 100% true. Here's my semi-live review from June...
  8. The 1st cruise from PC leaves on 10/25 (I'll be on it) and it's actually a weird 5-nighter from WED-MON to get it on schedule to do the 3/4's. Listen to @molly361; I think Allure is going to be her 2nd home while at PC. 😁
  9. If you choose the current sailing in the app you should be able to see the entire schedule of everything just as if you were onboard. That said, the schedule will likely change slightly from week to week.but it will give you a general idea.
  10. It refreshes everyday. One big advantage to the app, of course, is that it has the entire cruise.
  11. The app takes getting used to and you eventually would if you kept using it it but I agree the Compass is better at having everything kind of all in one place.
  12. Happy to help. I don't know why they don't have a link/button to take you to that URL posted somewhere. Like most of my info, I got it from someone in forum-land.
  13. It's an easy hour drive for me to PC and even I only do less than 7 under special circumstances (like squeezing in a shorter cruise while school is in session since my is a teacher)... they're just too darn short, lol.
  14. Good to hear. We fall into the "the cabin is for sleeping, showering, and changing" category so we pretty much always book interiors. When we have a balcony we never use it and my wife actually likes how dark and cold interiors get for sleeping and the occasional quick afternoon nap. Given all that, we'd rather use the savings elsewhere (like more cruises). We like to be around deck 9 or 10 so it's not too bad of a walk to just about any deck, up or down (I'm not bothered by much but I avoid crowded elevators whenever possible). If the window/seat and slightly extra room add anything, that's just a nice bonus.
  15. Except that the 10/25 cruise (which we're both on so you already know) is a 5-nighter to get Allure on schedule.
  16. That's more like it. 😋 I know you're not there to eat like I do but there are some good food options (including some healthy stuff like fruit & salad) at Skipper's Grill and Chill Grill (identical food). I'm usually there for the taco bar. That said, the chicken sandwich and funnel cake are probably my favorite included items at CocoCay.
  17. That's why I also mentioned this (for Android users)... Method 2. Scan the bar code with a QR scanner from another device and that should also show you the numbers.
  18. Not correcting you to be a jerk, but these are considered interiors. Your general explanation is 100% correct though, as was Biker's. It only jumped out at me because I have a Central Park view on Allure this month. I originally booked an interior GTY and the difference was very small (it was cheaper than regular or connecting interiors for some reason, dynamic pricing algorithm I guess) so my wife decided we should just lock in a location we like and not risk getting a connecting interior or deck 3 or whatever and hope to change cabins after assignment with how full the ship is. Not sure I'll be looking out that window much but the room is a bit bigger than a standard interior, maybe I'll sit on the window bench, and if not... it was really to eliminate the gamble (and happy wife, happy life obviously).
  19. This. Reservations opened on May 4th for my June 4th Wonder sailing. It’s not always exactly the 1st of the previous month as many say.
  20. I somehow failed to try this on Wonder in June. I shall correct that mistake in March (and June and July).
  21. I don't do whiskey which many Mason Jar drinks include and fruity lemonade seemed to go with an early meal anyway (we had 10:45 brunch although we were there for a while eating so much). Best part of cruising in general... something for everyone! I was busy stuffing myself with chicken n waffles, peanut butter stuffed french toast, etc. 😁 Agreed. Very good. Glad you had something not overly healthy, lol. It sounded perfect for you when we talked about it earlier, glad you're happy with it. I still don't care about my cabin in general but I'm looking forward to at least having a new category later this month. Mine won't be as shiny and new as yours on the older ship we'll be on but same basic layout (the closet situation is different, I like the Wonder version with two wardrobe type units on either side of the bed, but not a big deal). Cheers!
